Subject: [PATCH 3/3] drm/exynos: vidi: use ctx->lock to protect struct vidi_context member variables related to memory alloc/free

Exynos Virtual Display driver performs memory allocation/free operations
without lock protection, which easily causes concurrency problem.

For example, use-after-free can occur in race scenario like this:
```
	CPU0				CPU1				CPU2
	----				----				----
  vidi_connection_ioctl()
    if (vidi->connection) // true
      drm_edid = drm_edid_alloc(); // alloc drm_edid
      ...
      ctx->raw_edid = drm_edid;
      ...
								drm_mode_getconnector()
								  drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes()
								    vidi_get_modes()
								      if (ctx->raw_edid) // true
								        drm_edid_dup(ctx->raw_edid);
								          if (!drm_edid) // false
								          ...
				vidi_connection_ioctl()
				  if (vidi->connection) // false
				    drm_edid_free(ctx->raw_edid); // free drm_edid
				    ...
								          drm_edid_alloc(drm_edid->edid)
								            kmemdup(edid); // UAF!!
								            ...
```

To prevent these vulns, at least in vidi_context, member variables related
to memory alloc/free should be protected with ctx->lock.
